Madden NFL 10 Demo Available, Post Impressions Here

My goodness what can I say about the "GS" 5 minute per quarter demo. First of all this is the most immersed I have felt playing any Madden on 360/Ps3 (this is without commentary and few other presentation elements). Madden feels balanced and just right in the way it gives us videogame football. This game demo is several steps ahead of its previous iterations.

Great job Tiburon and all of you guys here who's great ideas bettered the game.

Anyone in a PAL region got the 360 Live Gold demo? Can't see it here in Aus.

It's in there (I'm on 360). But in replay it's kinda screwy.

Other than some minor O-Line AI issues, i really have no complaints at all about the demo.

It's very good.

yea, when playing with Brandon Jacobs and Marion barber, they felt alot more powerful as they broke out of tackles by running over people and using alot of their upper body strength.

i got a chance to play as Felix Jones when Marion Barber got hurt and broke out of tackles with jukes and spins (this was actually on a wildcat play...scored for a 29 yard TD...it was pretty awesome). the same went for Willie Parker in the gamestop demo in which i saw (didnt actually play as him myself) him break out of tackles with spins and jukes rather than running over people. As for Beanie Wells...i wasnt really sure how his style was. I guess it was kind of a mix of both being elusive and powerful...but he just isn't as strong or as elusive being that he's a rookie i suppose.

So, Marion Barber should always go down when he's met by a defensive tackle?

If the demo was the actual final build I would have been thrilled. Can't wait to play the final build!!!!

You know 09 was bad when this DEMO puts it to shame. Seeing Polamalu's hair fly around is so cool.

The atmosphere feels very amped up. It may just be a matter of them having increased the default volume (?), but sometimes just doing something small like that can make a big difference like we see here.
